The hardest sign I ever had to make

Recommended Posts

I've done banners as big as 4x30 feet and this is the hardest sign I ever had to do.

I know nothing can be said...

 

I have a small cemetery up the hill behind our house and several small wooden boxes on our mantle. Just can't let go...

And on the 9th Day

 

God looked down on his wide eyed children and said

they need a companion
So God made a Dog

 

God said I need somebody to wake up and give kisses, pee on a tree,

sleep all day, wake up again, give more kisses, and then stay up till

midnight basking in the glow of the television set.
So God made a Dog

 

God said I need somebody willing to sit, then stay, then roll over,

then with no ego or complaint dress in hats they do not need and costumes

they do not understand. I need somebody who can break wind without a first

thought or second thought. Who can chase tails, sniff crotches, fetch sticks

and lift spirits with a lick. Somebody no matter what you didn’t do, or couldn’t

take, or didn’t win, or couldn’t make will love you without judgment just the same.
So God made a Dog

 

God said I need somebody strong enough to pull sleds and find bombs,

yet gentle enough to love babies and lead the blind. Somebody who

will spend all day on a couch with the resting head and supportive eyes to

lift the spirits of a broken heart.
So God made a Dog

 

It had to be somebody who would remain patient and loyal even thru loneliness.

Somebody to care, cuddle, snuggle and nuzzle, and cheer and charm and snore

and slobber and eat the trash and chase the squirrels. Somebody who would bring

a family together with selflessness of an open heart. Somebody who would bark,

and then pant, and then reply with the rapid wag of tail when their best friend says

lets go for a ride in the car.
So God made a Dog

 

God said I need somebody who would stand at your side when the world around

you collapses. Somebody to lie next to you during the long nights of pain and

sorrow when it hurts to move, or talk, or think, or be. Somebody to stand guard,

play games, snore for hours, and repeat as needed. Somebody to give you strength

when you have none of your own. Somebody to fight when you have no fight left,

to hold onto your soul as if it were their favorite toy, playing tug of war to keep you

in this world. Somebody to be your companion and guide in this world and the next.

Somebody to wait for you on the other side or stand guard in your absence until they

can join you for eternity. 
So God made a Dog
